The steps to solving an inequality containing integers:

1. w+3<-1

2. w+3 -3<-1-3

3. w<-4

---- ----

w < -4


Things to remember:

1. Isolate the variable by doin
g the opposite operation that is being done
in the problem.

2. What is done on one side of the equal sign has to be done on the other side
.
